Happens to us white people too .
I had the crap beaten out of me by a cop cause he thought I was on drugs. I wasn't just having a hemiplegic migraine.
Stay off those shrooms Ben
I'd like to know your secret. I am not keen on getting the $100 Chelsea shakedown to wait six months for a useless restricted LTC-A or to get rejected for no reason.It depends more on the town than skin color. I got my LTC-A unrestricted in about a month, and I'm black.
Yep.I think it comes down to the media-driven bias that has long portrayed legal gun ownership as the domain of old Christian white guys. The reality is that, for example, for a century after the civil war African Americans loved their guns because that was their last line of defense against the still-racist South.
Personally, I've long been puzzled by the gun owner demographics. It would seem to me that any group that has been or is being persecuted would be more likely to own firearms - blacks, Hispanics, Jews, women, LGBTs (can I express that in plural form like that?), etc.
I remember reading an interview with Chris Cheng, the Asian gay dude that won Top Shot, where he said that for a while he was puzzled that they didn't even hint at his sexuality during the show. When he finally asked the staff about it, they shrugged and basically said "it has nothing to do with how well you shoot, so who cares?" Gun owners are seriously the friendliest people I've ever come across (I must not have met a lot of NES-ers ) so I have no doubt that your friends/coworkers would be more than welcome at any range/club.
Just my 2c
